Aroma is of citrus, floral and pine hops, toast, and a slight sweet earthy note. Taste is dry and crisp, packs much more flavor than anything I’ve ever had at 4.4%. Floral, citrus and grassy hops, sweet earth, toasted bread, caramel and a slight toffee note, finishes dry. Very solid, would make a great session...if only they kegged this and shipped it o NJ... curly (575), Nashville, Tennessee, USA

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | May 9, 2009 draft at Taco Mac, Cumming. Levitation is the best Amber Ale I’ve had, period. Stone delivers all the time - they are the top notch brewery in the US overall... pours a really deep amber, almost brown with a small off white head. good amount of hops with some sweet malt in the aroma. big hop presence through the mouth - I wouldn’t expect anything less from Stone... medium body, hops and sweet malt from top to bottom.... quality. Stone rocks! One of the best session beers, even at $10 a six pack. daknole (2884), Plantation, Florida, USA
